Trump 2.0

[DJack]

And they HATE Starmer and “lefties” almost as much as they hate people who don’t look like them. They really haven’t taken the election result well at all.

All you needed to post was...they hate.

Wishful thinking perhaps but in the absence of checks and balances from US institutions it could well be the financial markets that give Trump his lettuce moment.

Beep Beep Beep - Trump in reverse with tariffs.

Beep Beep Beep - Trump in reverse with tariffs.

I think he's seen an opportunity to exert money from the biggest US companies. Carmakers 'lobby' ie pay him and he exempts them.

Meanwhile thousands of Ukrainians die because of him. I hope he dies an excruciating drawn out death, the cunt.

He's also extracted plenty of promises from Canada and Mexico to avoid these tariffs coming into effect. Probably means he can pause/stop the tariffs and still tell his followers that he 'won' by wielding his big stick to great effect.

It seems to escape him that while these tactics may be commonplace in business, it's not how geopolitics generally works. Same with his approach to Europe being such a departure from the last 80 years of American policy. Either that or he's a sociopath and he's well aware, he just doesn't care.

No fan of Nixon but just shows how US politics has completely dumbed down. Now they have King Trump.

The patriots now reckon the king converted to Islam and Prince William has too. These people are the gift that keep on giving.

I was going to try not to bother but fuck it. Your assertion that it is a complex issue was very much a secondary point when you were clearly nailing your colours to the Trump mast.

You’re like dgt73, happy to spout off in your ultra right-wing utopia until you get questioned and then it all gets watered down and you somehow become the victim. Always been the same.

I'm sorry but that is absolute cobblers! And I'm quite flabbergasted, you would even say that!

'Clearly nailing your colours to the Trump mast'

Wow, couldn't be further from the truth, The only post I can assume you are referring to is where I mention, that all the blame on Trump, and he has literally been in power for only 4 or 5 weeks, I wouldn't say that was nailing ones colours to the mast, more like stating facts.

This opinion piece in the Guardian says it all.

Donald Trump is turning America into a mafia state | Jonathan Freedland

The pattern is inescapable – with just one caveat: organised crime bosses occasionally display more honour, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Freedland

Was going to post that last night but ended up falling deep into the comments. It literally makes my bones ache reading the dullards.

Exactly. It’s obvious. Need to stop pandering to him and his Mafia like bullying. Understand the hesitation because UK military dependent on US in so many ways but no alternative. US is no longer a reliable ally. On the contrary as long as Trump is their Commander in Chief they are a threat and need to be treated as such.

Seems like The Don has washed his hands of Ukraine , NATO and Europe in general , not my problem anymore . so you lot have to sort it yourselves .

Palestine and the Gaza Strip as the new Las Vegas hot spot , just wow .

Serious question, If Trump suddenly changed his tune and went Pro-Ukraine, what do people think would happen? IMO it most probably be the moment that WW3 starts.

And this question is no way at all meant to wind people up, it's a serious question, Thinking a few moves in advance.

Does Nato really want a war with Russia. It's all well and good being armchair generals, but massive loss of lives are happening here.

For me all day long, it has to be delegation, and I will always bang my drum that war is a complicated issue, but it's not complicated to see the issues if Trump ever decided to side with Ukraine.

It has to be sorted by delegation, and nothing else.
